Bacon can be used in many dishes, like eggs and burgers. People usually cook bacon in two ways: crispy or chewy.

Angela Patrone likes her bacon crispy, but she has trouble getting it that way.

Angela usually cooks bacon in an air fryer, but she also cooks it in a pan. She tried three ways to cook bacon: in a pan, in the oven, and in an air fryer.

The first way to cook bacon is in a pan. Angela put the bacon in a hot pan and cooked it for 8-10 minutes. She flipped it halfway through. This way is good if you like your bacon a little chewy.

If you like your bacon chewy, cook it in a pan.

Angela had to add oil to the pan so the bacon wouldn't stick. This made the bacon greasy and made a mess.

Using an air fryer is easy, but it has some downsides. Angela cooked the bacon in the air fryer at 180°C for 7 minutes.

The air fryer method is good if you like bacon with different textures. Some parts are chewy, and some are crispy.

Air frying is good for bacon with different textures.

Angela didn't like the air fryer method the most.

Angela had three pieces of bacon left to try the oven method. The oven is good for cooking a lot of bacon at once.

Angela preheated the oven to 180°C and put the bacon on a tray. She cooked it for 20 minutes, flipping it halfway through.

The oven is the best way to cook crispy and consistent bacon.

The oven method is the best because it's easy and makes perfect bacon. But it takes longer than other methods.

The only bad thing about the oven method is that it takes twice as long as other ways.
